What it does
The Inspector General Access Act of 2025 would amend the Department of Justice Inspector General’s authority by removing restrictions that previously limited investigations into certain allegations involving DOJ personnel. Specifically, it strikes language that excluded certain allegations from the IG’s investigative purview, thereby expanding the IG’s ability to investigate DOJ employees without those prior limitations. The bill affects the Department of Justice and its Inspector General by modifying procedural rules in Title 5 of the U.S. Code to enhance oversight access. It does not create new powers but removes a specific exception that had constrained the IG’s investigative reach.
